  • "Marco was very knowledgeable and hard working when we needed work done on a complicated Shareholder agreement. He was very quick to react and were fantastic at helping us get through some sticky negotiations as efficiently as possible. His communication was always speedy and to the point. The cost also seemed very reasonable for such a skilled service. I will certainly carry on using him for any future legal matters and feel very lucky that I was introduced to them. In a legal world where there is often so much prevarication and delay he was a breath of fresh air."

  • "Marco has been diligent & provided super speedy responses throughout the process helping us not only understand the decisions we were trying to make, but offering sound advice and options throughout the process. Not being SAVVY with legal matters he helped us understand (in non legal English) exactly what each clause meant, meaning this was the first time we 'had a clue' as to what we were signing up to, and how we could achieve our desired outcome. I was offered a price and they stuck to it in spite of our questions and Marco's numerous answers that helped enormously."

  • "In collaboration with a French solicitor, advised and helped our company to purchase a French website. Marco was always helpful, responsive and professional and we felt supported throughout this unfamiliar process. Thanks!
